For Samantha

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Hi Samantha dear, you best guy Tubby here.

I know it's been awhile and my mom will give all kinds of excuses for keeping me off here, but I think it's because she wants to keep me all to herself and not share me with you. I told her that she won't be giving me up, instead she'll be gaining another kitty to love (you, my sweet).

Mom says you've been hoping for some pictures, so here's one of me napping in the sun. I really love the sun and can lay in it for hours. What I really hate though, is when I lay down in full sun, but then I wake up and that durn sun has moved and I'm laying in a cold spot in the middle of the floor. Wish the sun wouldn't move like that. Do you like laying in the sun too, my sweet?

Another thing I don't like about laying in the sun is that my mom thinks I'm so darn cute that she can't help but come over and smooch on me. First of all, I only prefer smooches from my girl, Samantha, and second of all mom has to wake me up to smooch on me.

Why does she have to do that?

Mom's yelling at me to get off this thing now, so I'll have to get going my dear. Please post some more pictures of you, my sweet, so I can dream and dream and dream about you while I'm napping in the sun. :)

Tubby my sweet! I was just hinting on another thread that I really, really, really wanted to see some new photos of you!
I am exactly the same way about loving the sunny spots and hating when they move and my mom always bugs me and wakes me up too when I am enjoying the sunshine!!!
She says something about me being too cute to resist especially when I am showing off my white belly fur!
I can't post any photos right now but hopefully tonight I will be able to sneak on the computer and post a couple of special ones just for you my sweet Tubby!
Purringly Yours, Samantha;)

Tubby, if I saw you lying there like that, I'd smooch you all up too!
Twice, maybe.

Tubby, I don't think you should be too hard on your Mom for giving you kisses and waking you up....if you are even half as adorable in person as you are in your pictures I don't think she can help it. As I tell Squirt when he looks at me all rumpled and grumpy cause I woke him up: "being handsome and adorable isn't all fun and games" :D

Dearest Tubs (Can I call you that?),
I am afraid I, too, would have to have a smooching frenzy if I saw you laying in the sun. Whenever my herd curls up, or stretches out in the sun, I feel compelled to smooch them, and bury my nose in the circle their rolled up in! Sorry.

Protect that tummy, Tubby, even when sunbathing!

That way all the Furless Ones can do is gaze in awe upon our splendor!

Tubby may I suggest that you meet Samantha in Lut's cat hotel in Belgium? Very romantic place, good service. Others have already talked about going there for a honeymoon (or was it their purrents honeymoon -am I mixing up something:confused: ):D :D

Tanks for the suggestion, Edwina. I will definitely take you up on that one because no way, no how I like my tummy messed wif. Mom tries sometimes, but I always voice my opinion of tummy rubs real loud and nasty sounding, so she doesn't attempt it too offen. :) Dis here is about as exposed as my tummy gets at any one time.

Peanut's the one 'round here that likes them tummy rubs but I kinda like your idea of "the Furless Ones gazing in awe upon our splendor!" You have such a way with words. That Gabe sure is a lucky guy to have you. ;) :)

And tanks for the hint on Lut's Hotel, Filou. I tink Mom already has it booked for sometime in June. Sounds like a really nice place to take my Samantha Sweetie. Only bad thing is that sister of mine will probably be along, but she can go play with Maya and Inka and leave me and Sammy girl to our snuggles. :)

And tanks to everyone else for all your nice comments, but what's with all this smoochie stuff? I know being handsome is a tough row to hoe sometimes, but smoochies from mom are for girl kitties. I tell mom this all the time, but she keeps insisting that boy kitties like them too - well not me - hrrumph!

Here are the photos I promised just for you Tubby!!! See I really love the sun too just like you!

Sometimes in the winter when there aren't many sunny days the sunshine makes me wild and playful just like when I was a kitten!

I hope you liked the photos Tubby! I have some good news too, Gabe's mom said he could come with me on the train to visit Chicago and see you and Edwina! We hope to catch a train Friday morning to make it there for a long weekend! Purrs and kisses, Samantha ;)

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Samantha, my pet, I love your pictures!!!! I'm so glad you like the sun too. :) And I'm glad you haven't lost your playfulness either. I occassionally sprint around the house too, but only for a short time. Seems I really prefer to just lay around and either nap or keep an eye on what everyone else is doing. I hope that doesn't bother you. I'm really not lazy, just reserving my energy for you my love. :)

I'm so excited to hear you and Gabe will be arriving this weekend. Whoo boy! I'll have to start resting up now, so forgive me while I go take a nap. http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid42/pa09378b0d65f088f05d2b51901cc28ef/fcf359c3.jpg

I'm so happy you loved the photos Tubby!
More good news is that Gabe's mom said Graemer and Miley can come too! Maybe they can keep Peanut busy.
Have you seen what happened to Edwina and Gabe with the paparazzi?
It will make travelling with Gabe more difficult, do you have any idea on how we can avoid them?
Yours Always, Samantha
